Collaboration and coexistence with the community

POSCO operates free meal centers in Pohang and Gwangyang to provide meals to underprivileged individuals who find it difficult to access proper meals. We also execute the "Hope Sharing Lunch Box" project, which produces and delivers lunchboxes to vulnerable social groups in Pohang and Gwangyang. In addition to the free meal centers operated by the City of Gwangyang, the POSCO-run free meal centers in Pohang and Gwangyang feed 2,600 people with quality lunch boxes three times a week.

POSCO also operates Beyond, a university student volunteer group that was established in 2007. It planned and implemented a farming and fishing village reclamation project for direct participation in resolving social issues. Beyond's activities act as a bridge between the city and farming and fishing villages to restore rural communities to their former vigor.
